Modelling infection spread using location tracking. (2010)
Journal Article
Mason, A. M., Dingle, N. J., Knottenbelt, W. J., Bell, D., Buchanan, W. J., & Thuemmler, C. (2010). Modelling infection spread using location tracking. International Journal of Healthcare Technology and Management, 11, 442-461. https://doi.org/10.1504/IJHTM.2010.036925

The precision of location tracking technology has improved greatly over the last few decades. We aim to show that by tracking the locations of individuals in a closed environment, it is now possible to record the nature and frequency of interactions...

Design Issues for Peer-to-Peer Massively Multiplayer Online Games. (2010)
Journal Article
Fan, L., Trinder, P., & Taylor, H. (2010). Design Issues for Peer-to-Peer Massively Multiplayer Online Games. International Journal of Advanced Media and Communication, 4, 108-125. https://doi.org/10.1504/IJAMC.2010.032138

Massively Multiplayer Online Games (MMOGs) are increasing in both popularity and scale, and while classical Client/Server (C/S) architectures convey some benefits, they suffer from significant technical and commercial drawbacks. This realisation has... Read More about Design Issues for Peer-to-Peer Massively Multiplayer Online Games..

Deadline-Driven Auctions for NPC Host Allocation on P2P MMOGs. (2010)
Journal Article
Fan, L., Trinder, P., & Taylor, H. (2010). Deadline-Driven Auctions for NPC Host Allocation on P2P MMOGs. International Journal of Advanced Media and Communication, 4, 140-153. https://doi.org/10.1504/IJAMC.2010.032140

We present the design, implementation and evaluation of Deadline-Driven Auctions (DDAs), a novel task-mapping infrastructure for heterogeneous distributed environments. DDA is primarily designed for hosting Non-Player Characters (NPCs) in P2P Massive... Read More about Deadline-Driven Auctions for NPC Host Allocation on P2P MMOGs..

An efficient neighbourhood load routing metric for wireless mesh networks (2010)
Journal Article
Zhao, L., Al-Dubai, A., & Min, G. (2011). An efficient neighbourhood load routing metric for wireless mesh networks. Simulation Modelling Practice and Theory, 19, 1415-1426. https://doi.org/10.1016/j.simpat.2010.10.009

The Wireless Mesh Network (WMN) is a highly capable technology that can offer low-cost and easy-deployable network connectivity to both small-size community networks and large-scale metropolitan networks. As a key emerging technology to provide the n... Read More about An efficient neighbourhood load routing metric for wireless mesh networks.

GLBM: A new QoS aware multicast scheme for wireless Mesh network (2010)
Journal Article
Zhao, L., Al-Dubai, A., & Min, G. (2010). GLBM: A new QoS aware multicast scheme for wireless Mesh network. Journal of Systems and Software, 83, 1318-1326. https://doi.org/10.1016/j.jss.2010.01.044

Wireless mesh networks (WMNs) have been attracting significant attention due to their promising technology. The WMN technology is becoming a major avenue for the fourth generation of wireless mobility. Communication in large-scale wireless networks c...

Tradeoffs between latency, complexity and load balancing with multicast algorithms (2010)
Journal Article
Al-Dubai, A., Ould-Khaoua, M., & Mackenzie, L. (2010). Tradeoffs between latency, complexity and load balancing with multicast algorithms. IEEE Transactions on Computers, 59, 159-173. https://doi.org/10.1109/TC.2009.104

The increasing number of collective communication-based services with a mass interest and the parallel increasing demand for service quality are paving the way toward end-to-end QoS guarantees. Although many multicast algorithms in interconnection ne... Read More about Tradeoffs between latency, complexity and load balancing with multicast algorithms.
